Azul Fidelidade is the loyalty program of Azul Linhas Aereas Brasileiras, the largest domestic Brazilian network by city count and a non-aligned carrier. The fleet runs roughly 180 aircraft - A320neo, A330neo, ATR-72, E195 - serving 160+ destinations. The program rebranded from TudoAzul to Azul Fidelidade in April 2024, and Azul S.A. is publicly traded with reported Brazilian financial-restructuring discussions. Founded in 2008 by David Neeleman (also founder of JetBlue, Breeze Airways, WestJet, and Morris Air), Azul moves roughly 35 million passengers annually. Azul has been a Star Alliance connecting partner via United since 2020 - Azul flights earn United MileagePlus miles.

For US travelers, Azul Fidelidade is a hard-to-access program. None of Amex MR, Chase UR, Citi, Bilt, or Wells Fargo transfer directly. Capital One is NOT a current direct partner as of May 2026 - the partnership lapsed (verify against Capital One's official transfer-partner list before relying). Marriott Bonvoy is also not on the standard partner list (verify). The working access points are partnerships: Accor ALL (double-dip earning on Azul flights), Etihad Guest (redeems on Azul from 6,000 miles), and the Azul Pelo Mundo partner network with United, Copa, and TAP. The January 13, 2026 tier overhaul added Diamante Unique and Azul One at the top.
